Accidental Hero (1992)

A down-at-heel petty crook single-handedly rescues the survivors of a plane crash and then disappears, leaving a drifter to take all the credit and become a media star in the process. However, the phoney saviour starts to have a crisis of conscience, while the real hero is left languishing in jail.
